I’ve got a Nokia N95 and I want to download my pics to my PC and to a CD. Help!! I’ve got no idea how to get it going.

Admin says: I guess you’d need to plug a USB cable into your PC and then into your N95 and transfer the files off directly. From memory the PC should see the N95 as a USB hard drive/storage device of some type.
You could also try bluetooth for xfer if you have it. Or email yourself the pictures.

Recently you’ll have noticed I’ve posted a couple of users pleas for help to the blog. I figure its a good time for me to edit and post some of these requests for help. The community here is extremely knowledgeable and if we can help a few others out along the way, all the better. Now I know a few of you have been regular contributors to peoples requests and I am sure its very appreciated.

I’ll still be moderating each and every post to keep any noise to a minimum.

Admin:
Another please for some help with the N95.
I am sure this regular reader would appreciate any feedback on this.
My initial thought would be are you reading the memory off of a memory card plugged into the side slot rather than the base memory of the unit?

I can’t find anything I install on my N95 8gb.. I’ve downloaded via www.n-gage.com and the install works properly and when I’m going to play the game(or whatever I’m installing) I can’t find it anywhere on my phone! Please help me, I’ve spent days trying to get answers!!

Admin: If anyone has experience with this perhaps you can leave a couple of comments about where to find the playable games. I’ve not used n-gage myself so can’t really comment!

I guess that all you ever need is to use your imagination and create your theme the way you like it.

Sorry I did’t make tutorials for it because of the variation between users. But still if anyone had a quistion I will gladly answer it.

This App is free but still you need to register it with your own registration key after the trial period ends or when it asks.

I had some problems like a lot of people while trying to update my N95 to v30 firmware, because even when we know it’s already available for download, Nokia Updater keeps saying we are with the latest firmware.

So, as isawan95 said in New N95-1 Firmware Available v30.0.015, some providers customize the firmware before sell the phone.

This way, they change your Product Code to one that, for Nokia, will be forever firmware vxx.xx. In my case, v21.0.016.

So, i’ve found a tutorial explaining how to change your product code easily. I’ve translated since was in Portuguese-br.

TUTORIAL

Disclaimer: The informations described in this tutorial are intermediary-advanced and, if made anything wrong, you can damage or even ‘kill’ your phone. I suggest you follow these steps ONLY IF YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY SURE of what you are doing.

In any way, MyN95 admins or RaphaelDDL are guilty to whatever happens to our phone if YOU did something wrong or anything. We did NOT forced you to do

So, let’s get started.

1 ) Install Nokia PC Suite or NSeries PC Suite, connect your phone with the USB cable in Pc Suite Mode and make sure it was detected and working perfectly. Normally, one of those softwares comes in the CD-Rom that came in the phone box. I recommend you to update its version to the latest and, i like more NSeries PC Suite, but you choose

2 ) Download the following softwares:

* Nemesis Service Suite ( My Mirror at DepositFiles )
* Nokia Software Updater ( I can’t mirror since website detects the language and you will download an specific language exe)

3 ) Install Nemesis Service Suite without changing anything and PAY ATTENTION at the ending of installation where it will show you a tutorial explaining how install the necessary driver. Then:

* Open the program and click in the “Scan for New Device” button, in the upper-right.
* Click in “Phone Info”
* Clique in “Read” and, with other info, will show you your current Product Code.

4 ) ATTENTION, this step is very important!!!

In this point, the original and blocked “Product Code” of your phone will be replaced to one update able. The following list show you some “Product Codes” that allow you to update your firmware, both to N95-1 (EURO) and N95-3 (NAM). Pick the one accordingly to your phone type!

N95-1
#0548763
#0546222
#0549028

N95-3
#0552432
#0552434

Question: What type is my phone?
Answer: N95-1 have Lens Protector while N95-3 don’t. Look the damn photos

N95-1

N95-3

5 ) Type the chosen Product Code in the form, check the “Enable” checkbox and click in the “Write” button. That’s it, the Product Code of your phone has been replaced. Check if everything worked fine by clicking in “Read” again. Now will be shown the new Product Code.

6 ) Nokia PC Suite and NSeries PC Suite have the Backup option. I ask.. No, i DEMAND YOU to backup the phone!

6.1 ) MAKE SURE your phone have Full Battery.

I suggest you to make the updating in a GOOD Notebook because if Energy drop and your pc turn off or pc freeze ’cause your pc sucks or anything, say good bye to your phone and be sure you got some cash in bank to buy other one

7 ) Simply update your firmware using Nokia Software Updater, following the things the program ask you.

8 ) Its Ready! Your phone is now updating and unbloked!

…Hey, wait!?! Where are my Contacts, my Configs, everything!?!!?

Yeah, updating firmware is like formatting your PC. That’s why i told you to make backup! Simply use Nokia/NSeries PC Suite and restore it.

9 ) Re-install your applications.

10 ) Future Firmware updates does not need this big tutorial, you will just need to start from Step #7.

And that’s it, our tutorial is over.

Now I haven’t registered and tried this site or its features, but I figured there are enough of you out there that might
want to give it a go. As usual leave any feedback in the comments section.

The website to visit is http://zyb.com/

Bear in mind it may cost you a few dollars to get your own certificate, however once you have it you’ll be able to sign any of those unsigned applications that you have laying around.

You can view the guide at this website http://n95-nokia-phone.blogspot.com/2007/09/advanced-and-inquisitive-symbian.html

And its free to use on one device .. Even the online tracking service is free for one IMIE number

There has been a lot of interest recently in the software that allows you to control the screen in your N95.
Here is another use for your phone.
Follow the link here for more info.

If anyone has used an animated GIF as a screen saver, let us know via the comments section. A link to the file would also be great so we can try it out.

This website has some more info on how to create an animated screen saver.

original users post.

Nokia MultiMedia Transfer: Transfer pictures, videos, music, and more between your compatible Nokia device and Mac. Integrates audio with iTunes and pictures with iPhoto. You can also set your N95 to be recognized as a Camera. One of the coolest features however is transfering you photos to iPhoto, and have iPhoto transfer back optimized versions of your photos to your phone, keeping more space available.

Nokia N95 iSync Plugin: Sync your iCal Calendar and Address Book with your phone. Also supports Entourage, however, to get this support you must sync Entourage with .Mac. This will enable Entourage to use iSync to transfer data to your phone.

In Entourage: Preferences > Sync Services > Check all that apply.

Auto Sync: Julian Schrader has created this lite app which will open iSync, Sync, and then close iSync. Works well. there is also some discussion on his blog around automatically running this app when your phone enters the Bluetooth range of your Mac. Very handy, however I have not tested as there are two scripts to make this happen and I don’t much about combining these scripts. Perhaps a reader here can compile the scripts into a nice little pack for the rest of us.

Julian states he uses a third party app to get this functionality, called “BluePhoneElite”. You need BluePhoneElite II for the N95, but it is currently Beta, requires a purchased unlock code, and N95 support is not fully functioning yet. Keep an eye out though as the feature set, once complete for the N95, is quite robust.

More Maps: I believe this is the default app on the N95, but if you don’t have it one your phone, get it here.Load all the maps you want, and you can upgrade to the Navigational Aid.

Then I took the microSD card out so I could send the phone back for replacement, thought I’d give it one more try – and it worked!

So, if you want to change your ringtone & the phone won’t let you, it seems the solution is to take out the SD memory card, change it, then pop it back in.
